Overall Satisfaction with Descript
I have been using Descript to transcribe a number of User Interviews and Focus Groups.
- Transcription
- Generous free tier
- Great desktop app
- Ability to remove filler words and record directly within the app
- When editing a transcript it can get a little cumbersome, as a double click doesn't always do what you think it will
- Some features aren't that intuitive (what is resize word gap) for beginners
- A tutorial/wizard as soon as you sign up would be very useful
- Accurate transcription
- Ability to handle large audio files
- Ability to share files and workspaces
- Very nice user interface
- It has cut the time I dedicate to transcriptions in half
It works as well as Otter transcribing and with similar accuracy, but has a much better free tier, and has workspace management features that are more robust.
